Summary edit

Description Native, warm-season, perennial, scrambling or twining legume with a thick taproot and slender stems to about 50 cm long. Leaves have 3 nearly hairless leaflets, with the central stalk distinctly longer than the lateral ones. Stipules are often purplish. Secondary veins are angled at 30-60 degrees from the midrib. Flowers are blue to purple. Pods are 1-4 cm long, elongate and hairy. Flowering is from early spring to late autumn. Widespread and very common in lightly stocked native and naturalized grasslands and woodlands; also along roadsides. Abundance increases after opening up of pastures (e.g. burning). Native biodiversity. Fixes nitrogen, but is not highly productive. Palatable, with moderate to high digestibility and crude protein. Responds to applied phosphorus, but rarely sulfur. Is selectively grazed by stock; declines under set stocking, but increases under rotational grazing.
